For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth. You can also add a bay leaf during the simmering process for extra depth. Adjust the amount of pickle juice according to your preference for tanginess. If you don't have pickle juice, a splash of white vinegar can be used as a substitute. Consider adding other vegetables like parsnips or leeks for a more complex flavor profile. If you don't have Yukon gold potatoes, Russet potatoes can be used, but they may require a bit more mashing to achieve the desired consistency.
